On the Rocks 2020

To like -

  • Bill Murray. The guy is just a legend. You could watch him brush his teeth and be amusingly entertained.
  • Rashida Jones. A deft performance from a talented and very likeable actress. She should get more high-profile roles.
  • Chet Baker songs.
  • Using New York in a natural setting.

To not like -
- Overly long set up.
- Under-used plot twist (cough: Mexico)
- Poor dialogue for the husband.
- Limpy ending...

(and how does this film have 20 stunt people?)

6/10 - largely on the strength of Murray's charm as without it, there's nothing to see here as far as plot.
